Friend got taken hostage... dealt with the bandits accordingly

Recommended Posts

So me and my friend were looting the airfield. Since he was the one with the least valuable gear he decided to go in while I kept an eye out on the outside. I did not see anything, but as he is running around he gets hit with a Mosin shot. He runs into the jail and asks me to look around. Soon enough I see three(!) guys approaching the jail and tell him to just sit tight and wait for them at the top of the stairs. He does, but they start talking to him. At this point I am deciding whether I want to approach them or not, but they are trying to talk my friend into coming down and say that they are friendly. We did not trust it, but since my friend didn't have much to lose and I had no way of taking three guys out without them hearing my footsteps (the doors were closed) he decides to come down. As soon as he pops his head out... He gets shot. Now it's on! I decide to circle around and ambush them. Three guys, all by myself. This is where the video starts:

 

 

 

 

Later we found out that the third guy combat logged when I shot his second friend. How sad. Still, their little bandit group got what was coming for them and justice was served that day!

The new code for friendly should be "I'm not a douche, I'm not a douche!" :D

 

I would agree, but then wouldn't it just turn into:

 

"I'm not a douche!"

 

YOU ARE DEAD

Thanks! No, it is actually 40 fps. It says 'video' in front of it which looks like a 1 in YouTube quality ;)

 

My settings are basically on medium. If I don't record I can set some stuff to high and still get about 40 fps, on low I get 60-80 fps (while recording).

Anything above 35 is okay for me, so these settings work best. I only have a gaming laptop, so I don't have THAT much power anyway.

 

I use NVidia ShadowPlay to record. To me it's by far the best software, way better than OBS, Fraps or DXTory. Hardly any performance loss while recording. I record in 720p, 22 MBps using H.264. My graphics card is an NVidia GeFore GTX760M (overclocked) and my processor is an i7-4702MQ 2.2GHz (3.2GHz turbo, overclocked to 2.4GHz, turbo 3.4GHz).
